NIHR Dementia and Neurodegenerative Diseases Research Network (DeNDRoN) - Co-ordinating Centre

DeNDRoN logoThis Centre is hosted jointly by University College London and Newcastle University (IAH).

DeNDRoN facilitates the conduct of randomised prospective trials and other well-designed studies of the dementias and neurodegenerative diseases, including those for prevention, diagnosis and treatment. 

The creation of a UK research network for dementias and neurodegenerative diseases has allowed a sharing of resources and methodological expertise across a wide range of disabling long-term disorders which we recognise to share many common factors.

It builds on the strengths already present in the UK as well as increasing general capacity in the field of dementia and neurodegeneration and will cover major diseases including Alzheimers, Motor Neurone Disease, Parkinson’s Disease and Huntington’s Disease
